Hints

Defeating Rod
When you pay the 100G to fight him, run behind the
small house on the left side of the field -- this is your safety
shield. You must always keep yourself and Rod separated by the
house. You can strike him with by pressing [X] (w/ Rue),
but he can only hit you with one move which he uses very sparingly.
Keep pounding him from behind the house until you win. Afterwards,
collect your 1000G award from him. If you are using Mint, hit
him with magic through the house.

If you fight and defeat Rod of the Blade Star enough times when
he has Silver Breeze or the Golden Gale, he will say he will take
a break to develop a new weapon, and along with the usual 1000G,
he will give you a gold coin. Defeat him enough times when he
has the Black Tornado, and you will receive a platinum coin. If
you defeat him enough times when he has the Dark Hurricane, you
will get another platinum coin. Any fight after that, he will
reveal his stats and a different music piece from the game will
play.

Defeating First Valen
Note: This only works with Rue. Make sure you can turn
into Jinn when you fight Valen. Turn into him when he finishes
talking, and kill his little henchmonster with the Jinn's regular
attack. Then, move near Valen (in Claire's body) and use the Jinn's
Sonic attack, which will home in on Valen/Claire. If he summons
his henchmonster again, kill it with regular attacks. Keep repeating
this until Valen is defeated. Note: The henchmonster's Earthquake
Jump will not affect you when you are a Jinn.

Defeating Duke in star costume
The second time you face Duke, he will appear in a
star costume (immediately after you speak with Mel). Do not hit
Duke while he is standing; hit him while he is on his face. Make
sure to only hit Duke once. As soon as you hit him once, he stands
up.

Legendary sword, shield, and helmet
Once you get all three legendary items, do not sell
them. Take them to Jargen's tavern (in the alley to the right
of Tonio's shop). He will ask you to give theme to him. Accept
his offer. When you go back and he asks if you want a drink, there
will be a new option called "Today's Special". Select
it and he will ask for the ingredients (monsters). If you have
them, give them to him and he will make a "Monster"
dish. These foods will raise stats.

Brooch
Using Mint, go to Gamul Forest. With the cart, try
to get on the tracks that lead you to the pink treasure box. This
may require you to hit the switch. When you get to it, you should
receive a Brooch. After you get back to the town of Carona, go
to Jargen's tavern. Talk to Annette twice, and if you give the
Brooch to her, she will give you a discount on the drinks.

Rare wine
Give the wine to Hobbs and you will get a drastic price
cut on the power ups.

Skins
To get a lot of skins at once, just go to Gamul Forest
and use some magic in front of the generators. They will just
keep running into it. This is also a good way to increase your
magic. This also works with Rue as a monster.

Spooky statue
For Rue, give this to Klaude. For Mint, give it to
the sales person in the hotel.
